  1. I guess Crosby should have 6 then.
  2. 4 Raiders and no Jags ??? ??? Guess you gotta lobby for this stuff.
  3. Good post but realize this.... Being a "meat" hunter is not an "excuse", its a preference. Everybody knows that it would be cheaper to go buy prime rib rather than deer meat. But give the legal ethical hunter the right to hunt legally. The trophy hunt is going to simply drive up prices everywhere. I had a judge tell me that the new law wasn't going to pass in court. That someone who drops a deer at 120 yards is going to easily be able to fight this. I'm no legal expert so I can't say. And I've seen many dominant bucks killed this year. And not talking about the good eight point . I've seen 3 monsters. Its been a great year in East Texas for awesome bucks! But like I've said. I'm going to give the new law time to work. I can see good things from it. Just don't like it when legal ethical hunters are disparaged because they don't care about trophies. I don't think mistake will work as an excuse. Think about duck hunters. They are required to identify species of a fast moving object, often in low light. If they make a mistake, they pay the fine(if caught) No doubt in my mind that this rule would be enforceable. Don't shoot unless you are sure.
  4. Believe it or not, there are circumstances where doe should not be killed. some areas have such low deer density due to overharvest, that they need some time to repopulate.
  5. If he was twice that big, in Ozona, I'm expecting some severe ground shrinkage. ;D
  6. That's a nice hill country buck!
  7. I'm not on a trophy lease. I share 1200 acres in the hill country which is low fenced and has hunters on all sides. We, as a group, have decided to shoot nothing less than 4 1/2 years and have tried to learn how to age deer on the hoof. In 6 years, we have started seeing more and better bucks. It's not a trophy lease, but we are doing our best to make it one and our efforts have paid off, to some degree. The minimum spread is not the ideal answer, but it's better than what we have now in east Texas. Maybe once the herds get a little age on them, then we can start working on culling inferior deer. ps--If your kids shoot 4 point bucks and you think spikes are culls, exactly what do they pass on, 3 pointers?
  8. He will be back. He still has scoreboard. Amazing how one guy can turn a whole community against his team. :D
  9. Man, you guys have about a 3 minute advantage over the internet hookup I have, I just now heard the 4th down stop
  10. FG try with the wind from 47 no good! Tied at half
  11. Ball at Dayton 40 with 13 seconds left. Pass interference against Dayton. Now at the 30
  12. Almost halftime. Tivy hits a nice pass play and Dayton flagged for late hit.
  13. Dayton stops them but then goes 3 and out. 5 minutes in the half and Dayton just punted for negative yards. Kville takes the ball at the Dayton 1
  14. Sounds like Tivy is winning at the line of scrimmage right now.
  15. kville just fakes a punt and got stopped. Good field position for Dayton.
